Boom!!!
Psychic power surged endlessly from Zuo Ci like a storm, slamming into the onrushing flood.
"This feeling... is absolutely incredible!"
Feeling the power coursing through him, Zuo Ci couldn't help grinning.
Unlike the sheer physical might of the Viltrumites, psychic power offered something closer to the ability to do whatever he pleased.

Just as he was about to leave, Zuo Ci suddenly felt warmth
